The Government has introduced legislation to replace Police Authorities in an attempt to democratise the control of the police. This process will change the face of policing forever by handing control to you through the PCC. You will have the power to decide what you want from the police. I want to help you shape the future of policing in the West Midlands without political interference. I'm completely independent of party politics and am truly interested in what you have to say. I think it's time for a fresh perspective - yours - which is why I'll be asking you for your views on crime and safety so that together we can tackle the issues that matter most to you.

Welcome to my website where I'll be uploading a weekly blog and keeping you informed on what's happening, with details of when I'll be in your local area.
